IMPROVED EGG-BEATER.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 58,165, dated`September 1S, 1866.

To all whom. it may concern.:

Be it known that I, CHARLES Mi' BRENNAN, of Boston, in the county 0fSuffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and usefulImplement for Beating Eggs; and I do hereby declare the following to bea full, clear,

and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, in which- Figure l is a vertical section, and Fig. 2 ahorizontal section, of my invent-ion.

In the drawings, a represents a cylindrical vessel of any desired orproper dimensions, having a cover or lid, b, to shut tightly into itsmouth. A diaphragm, o, composed of Wiregauze or its equivalent material,is connected with the cover b by two or more rods, d d, which should beof such a length as to allow the diaphragm to extend into the vessel aabout twothirds of its depth.

In operating with the above-described implement, the eggs are to beplaced in the vessel a. and the diaphragm and cover inserted in place.The implement is then to be grasped in the hand and shaken back andforth briskly for a few seconds, when the eggs will be found to bethoroughly beaten by bein g forced through the diaphragm.

The above-described apparatus is very Simple and cheap in itsconstruction and quick in its operation, ten seconds sufcing to beatthree or four eggs sufficiently to allow of their being strained.

I olaim- A 4 The gauze diaphragm o, when supported and inserted by thewires d d, attached to the cover, as and forthe purpose specified.
